All the major parts stores sell engines as well, both new and rebuilt. You can get a price from them to get an idea about that bit. The engine swap, particularly at a dealer, will be priced according to their hourly labor rate (which they will tell you on the phone) and at the ASE time estimate for the job. Pull out your pocket calculator, multiply the two numbers together and have a friend apply CPR when you go into cardiac shock.

You should go ahead and call some independent shops and get a quote for that job from them. This 50% warrantee jazz could very well mean it's an even deal either way since the dealership's hourly rate will be higher and so will their part cost. It might be the same end cost either way and you may or may not feel like the dealership is better for the job. Personally I believe private mechanics are often more talented and senior but maybe you have a different position.

You should also consider whether this is a good use of funds. Cars.com pulls up a blue book value on this car (assuming 85,000 miles) of about $4500. ATK Engines (not an endorsement, just my first google pick) lists a rebuilt engine for your vehicle at $2300. If your dealership charges $80 an hour and book time is 14 hours you're in for another $1120 (not counting shop fees and all the associated hoses and gaskets that'll get replaced too).
